What is the meaning of 1x strong, 2x strong etc. ?
This is an indication of wire thickness. The higher the «x» number, the stronger
the wire.
As a general rule, the «x» number denotes the shift in sizes in relation to the wire
thickness of an equivalent standard hook.
Therefore, a 1X strong treble has the same wire thickness as its standard equi-
valent on size bigger and a 2X strong treble has the same wire thickness as its
standard equivalent two sizes bigger etc. The other hook dimensions are unchanged.
This table illustrates the shift in sizes for VMC
